• At an overall level, out of 10 pictures taken with mobiles, 6 are selfies.

• Out of 10 selfies taken, 6 are group selfies with two or more people.

• 89 percent of consumers are more willing to take selfies when with family and friends.

• 96 percent of consumers take more than one selfie every time to get a perfect one.

• 82 percent of selfie users send selfies to connect with friends while 75 percent use it for sharing on social media.

• 66 percent claim that the biggest issue they face while taking a selfie is the difficulty in fitting all people in one frame!
